Lin Wanyu slept peacefully all night, and when she woke up the next day, she found out that Lu Langchen had been making trouble all night, Lin Jinlan had been crying all night, and Lu Zhang and Lu Shengming had not received any favors, because——
Chu Yao is sick.
Suddenly a high fever persisted. If Lu Shengming hadn't pushed her and found her still huddled motionless on the cold ground, it would have been until the next day when the maids came in to discover that something was wrong with Chu Yao.
Even here, Lu Shengming waited until dawn before calling for a doctor.
No one knew that he just couldn't sleep and was walking around the room. Chu Yao on the ground was too annoying, so he took mercy and called the doctor.
"What's wrong?" Lin Wanyu and Bai Lu were eating breakfast together, listening to Xiangmei talk about the gossip they just learned about.
"Now I only know that it's a high fever that won't go away. I haven't found out the details yet, but Chen Xiyuan is very lively!"
Xiangmei spoke vividly and acted out the scandal last night as if it were true or false, making them both laugh.
Bai Lu even spit out a mouthful of fish soup, choking and coughing for a long time.
After saying that Lu Langchen had smashed all the objects in Chenxi Garden, he began to destroy the flowers and plants in the yard, even the two lanterns at the entrance of the yard. The boys did not dare to go up, but they were afraid that the young master would destroy them. Injured, he huffed and knelt on the ground.
It can be said that wherever Lu Langchen hit, the seven or eight boys behind him would kneel down.
After Lin Jinlan arrived, Lu Langchen couldn't control himself anymore. He hit her on the back with a sap, which made stars appear in her eyes and she couldn't get up for a long time.
The concubines who were married to each other even shrank behind, watching helplessly how lethal this young master, who was usually weak and unable to take care of himself, was now.
But their shouts only aggravated Lu Langchen's irritability.
"I heard that most of the girls in Chen Xiyuan were beaten! How miserable!"
"ah?"
Lin Wanyu and Bai Lianlian looked at each other.
"Didn't you say that he doesn't hit women?" Lin Wanyu still remembered what Lu Mingyu said on the day he took the bird.
Xiangmei shook her head: "Maybe I was too stimulated and couldn't tell whether the person in front of me was a boy or a girl, so I just hit him randomly!"
As she spoke, she also imitated the action of closing her eyes and pretending to hold a stick in her hand and wave it around wildly.
At this moment, Lin Wanyu and Bai Lu couldn't laugh anymore.
"I didn't expect that he would be so frightened." Bai Lu's soft-hearted problem arose again. She felt that it was because of herself that the servants of Chen Xiyuan were in trouble.
Seeing this, Lin Wanyu found an excuse to put Xiangmei away, and gently held Bai Lu's hand: "This is not your fault, he brought it upon himself."
"I don't understand why I bring it upon myself, but I know the cause and effect. Girl, I'm fine." Bai Lu held Lin Wanyu in her arms, her eyes firm.
No matter how much she couldn't bear it, Bai Lu knew that the hurt suffered by those in Chen Xiyuan was, from a certain point of view, the same as hers.
We are all living a hard life in this world. Let alone the future, even in the present, our wealth and life are controlled by others and cannot be controlled by ourselves.
"Besides, the young master has given me the concubine release letter, and I am free. If the seventh young master comes to provoke me again, I can take revenge and go back!" Bai Lu originally thought that her life would be in the Lu Mansion, in the Tomorrow Garden, but she didn't expect There will be a day when I can be free again.
She didn't hesitate to say no, but put it away with great care, and kowtowed to each of Lin Yunyu and Lu Mingyu.
The two of them are a blessing to Bai Lu!
"What are your plans for the future?" Lin Wanyu was very happy that Bai Lu had such a persevering character and was not depressed by this setback, so she was willing to plan the future for Bai Lu together.
"Would you like to start a small business? Your cooking skills and female worker are both good."
Bai Lu pouted and thought for a while, then shook her head: "I haven't thought about it yet. Girl, do you want to drive me away?"
Bai Lu held Lin Wanyu's arm affectionately, and humiliated her into her arms: "I want to stay with the girl again."
"Why do I want to drive you away? I wish you wouldn't leave." Lin Yuyu smiled and scratched Bai Lu's nose, "It's okay, we have plenty of time, think about it slowly!"
Bai Lu nodded heavily!
In addition, Lin Wanyu also asked Lu Mingyu about the outcome of Shen Ningxin's incident that day.
Indeed, as he said, the Shen family chose to settle the matter and sent Shen Ningyue north to Beijing a year ago, while Shen Ningxin stayed in the old house to recuperate and wait until the new year to discuss whether she would go to Beijing.
Bai Lu regretted this for a long time: "A good person like Ms. Shen San didn't get the justice she deserved."
Lin Wanyu sighed: "The larger a family is, the more complicated and intertwined the relationships within it are. If the head of the family is unable to bring order to the chaos, he can only choose to maintain superficial peace. Just live on."
"Like the Lu family?" Bai Lu felt blessed.
Lin Wanyu chuckled twice: "Our Bai Lu is really enlightened, and her little head is getting brighter and brighter."
In the past, what Bai Lu was thinking about all day long was either about what delicious food was cooked in the big kitchen, or about trivial trivial matters and gossip in Lin Yunyu's ears.
Now, she can express her views to Lin Wanyu on the incident itself.
It just goes off the rails from time to time...
"Wouldn't that give Miss Shen the opportunity to enter the palace and become the empress?"
No, Bai Lu's bright little head didn't know where it went.
Lin Wanyu smiled helplessly: "Miss Li made that up just to anger Miss Shen and tear apart her disguise."
"Ah?" Bai Lu showed her unique stupidity again, but then she thought: "I didn't expect Miss Li to be so smart, and she could think of a way in such an emergency. If it were me, I would probably be eaten by the enemy. There is no scum left.”
Lin Wanyu hugged Bai Lu and gave her silent but warm support, just like two grasses short of water on a dry land, coming together to encourage each other.
It is always difficult for a woman. If she no longer has her own opinion, even gods will not be able to save her.
No matter what kind of difficulty you are in, if you are unable to change, then face it bravely, accept it, and then find a new direction from it.
Shen Ningxin is like this, Bai Lu is like this, and she, Lin Wanyu, is like this.
"Walking slowly doesn't mean you lose. Enjoy the scenery along the way, and you may have different opportunities."
the other side--
From that day on, Lu Langchen couldn't sleep every night, and his energy was almost exhausted. Lin Jinlan was so frightened that she asked famous doctors. Finally, even a Taoist priest came to give Lu Langchen a ritual to ward off evil spirits.
Lu Zhang was also busy for several days and could not get home every day.
It's either that the government didn't do anything and the bandits who kidnapped his son couldn't be found, or that several businesses had had troubles recently, making it difficult for him to live in peace.
Lu Shengming, who was no longer under the control of his parents, also abandoned his sick wife and stayed out every night to have a good time.
Basically, except for Tomorrow Garden, the entire Lu family can be said to be in a state of turmoil. Crisis is looming everywhere, and only one fuse is missing...
Under the protection of Lu Mingyu, Lin Wanyu still had some peace and could live in a corner despite the overt and covert struggles of the Lu family.
Zhao Changsu, who was far away in the north, was not so lucky.
The winter frost caused him to fall seriously ill, and he fell asleep in his mansion in the north for a whole month.
During this period, Yu Yan came here, originally planning to stay even if she was beaten to death by the young master. Besides, Zhao Changsu was ill, so she used this excuse to stay.
But she underestimated the danger of staying next to Zhao Changsu. Once she was given medicine, she just took a sip of the medicine soup to check the temperature, and she almost met the King of Hell.
Fortunately, the doctor who was responsible for brewing medicine for Zhao Changsu thought of checking his pulse again, and then he realized that Yuyan was poisoned, and he hurriedly rescued her with a golden needle.
If it had been a moment later, Yuyan would have died.
But the poison was so strong that it damaged Yuyan's foundation. She was so frightened that she thought about it for several days and nights, and finally decided to return to her master.
That is, Concubine Rong who is still in the imperial city.
At least there is no such danger around Concubine Rong.
But of course, Yu Yan couldn't tell her this little thought. She only said that she would go back to resurrect the empress, and that she would explain in detail the "tragic situation" of Lin Wanyu in the Lu family.
She didn't know how miserable it was.
But if she doesn't leave, she will be in trouble!
The world is not as big as her fate!
But she didn't know that as soon as she walked away, Zhao Changsu woke up on the back.
As for Zhao Changsu's attendant, Aman, who saw through Yuyan's remarks but did not tell them, he naturally concealed the fact that Yuyan was poisoned.
Just pretend she never came.
After all, Yu Yan is here, and no one can tell what is happening to Lin Wanyu who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River.
Zhao Changsu's situation is difficult enough. He has no energy and no ability to take care of a woman with whom he can no longer have a relationship!
Half a month later, Aman was even more grateful that he didn't talk too much.
Because, the Northern Barbarians have invaded!
The Northern Barbarians were a tribe adjacent to the northern border of this dynasty. They grew up on ponies and were tall and tall. They roared and roared towards us, like an ambush by wild beasts, which was terrifying.
This time, they took advantage of the tiredness of the winter city to launch a sudden attack.
In just three days, they captured the outermost states and towns in the north. Their morale immediately soared, and they made bold promises: Conquer the Zhao family in three months.
As soon as Zhao Changsu recovered from a serious illness, he had to face the evil spirits and snake spirits among the officials in the northern border, as well as endless difficulties and assassinations, making it impossible for Zhao Changsu to control the northern border.
Even Zhao Changsu, who was very close to the attack by the Northern Barbarians, learned about it at the same time as the new emperor who was far away in the capital!
That night, Zhao Changsu couldn't bear it anymore, rushed into the Zhizhou mansion where he was entertaining his colleagues, and stabbed his throat with a sword.
He held up the long sword that was still dripping with blood, pointed at the northern officials who were drinking from the glass just now, and said sternly: "I am still the prince, the northern territory is my fiefdom, and I am the one you must be loyal to." , if you dare to make small moves behind my back again, don't blame me for being ruthless, this sword will fall on your heads at any time!"
In the north, the sky is high and the emperor is far away. These subordinate officials have long been accustomed to being emperors. When they saw that King Xuan dared to come directly to kill Zhizhou, a few young ones immediately jumped out.
It's a pity that Zhao Changsu didn't even have the patience to listen to their rebuttals. As long as someone dared to point at him and speak harshly, his throat would burst open and blood would splash everywhere in the next second.
In one night, Zhao Changsu killed a total of twelve northern officials.
"I really want to thank Duan Zhizhou for gathering you all so that I can kill you so easily! In this case, will I reward Duan Zhizhou's family members and go to hell together?"
Zhao Changsu spoke calmly and calmly, as if he was talking about ordinary things, but what he said was full of blood and killing.
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Changsu waved his hand lightly and ordered, and the secret guards came out in full force, killing all the dozens of people in the Zhizhou Mansion.
His hands were already stained with a lot of blood, so he didn't mind more.
He only hated his former self, why he couldn't be as ruthless as he is today, otherwise, he wouldn't need to be so far away from his girl.
Sister Wanyu, how are you in Jiangnan?
